Agromin and Waste Management are collaborating byhelping
Santa Monica to become a zero waste city by processing green waste and food scraps
from city residents. The amount of food we throw away that ends up in landfills
is staggering. Agromin currently processes more than 380,000 tons of organic and
food materials each year and turns it into compost and soil amendments.

Just think, the
food and organic waste you put out for recycling is being turned into compost
and then used in landscape projects around the Los Angeles area. Some of the
locations using the materials include the California Science Center, Natural
History Museum, San Vincente Park, Watts Towers and Pepperdine in Malibu.

The compost is
also great for yards in:

Veggie gardens

Container
gardening

Turf maintenance

Pathways (ES2
mulch for a natural look)

Agromin's Dave
Green often gives talks to Santa Monica Community College students about
organics recycling (next up is March 28).
